Sunlight on Hardwood

[Chorus] Sunlight softens the hardwood floor Warmth I've never felt before Just like you when you wake A hug that makes my heart ache [Verse] Morning mist begins to fade On the porch, a serenade Old wood creaks, a gentle sound As my fingers move around On this worn-out, trusty friend Melodies that never end [Pre-Chorus] Calloused tips begin to strum Till the afternoon has come Sunflower turns its golden face To this quiet, peaceful place [Chorus] Sunlight softens the hardwood floor Warmth I've never felt before Just like you when you wake A hug that makes my heart ache [Verse] Clothesline sways a checkered shirt Chasing away the morning's hurt Kitty purrs, a gentle hum My sweet rhythm, overcome By the comfort that you bring As I start to softly sing [Pre-Chorus] Every string, a sunbeam bright Filling up the fading light Kitty's purr, a steady beat Making life feel oh so sweet [Chorus] Sunlight softens the hardwood floor Warmth I've never felt before Just like you when you wake A hug that makes my heart ache [Bridge] I put my tools down, work is done My sweet darling, my little one Pine scent fills the air so deep Secrets that our hearts will keep [Verse] Later on, when day is done And the setting of the sun Casts long shadows on the grass Moments that will surely pass But the feeling stays with me Pure and simple, wild and free [Chorus] Sunlight softens the hardwood floor Warmth I've never felt before Just like you when you wake A hug that makes my heart ache [Outro]
